It took two days, but California Chrome co-owner Steve Coburn finally delivered the interview many thought he should have given after his horse lost the 2014 Belmont Stakes and the Triple Crown, as well as the apology that was called for after Saturday's post-race rant.

While speaking to Robin Roberts on "Good Morning America," Coburn appeared to fight back tears as he apologized: "[I'm] very ashamed of myself," he said. "I need to apologize to a lot of people, including my wife Carolyn. First of all, I need to apologize to the winners, they ran a beautiful race...I did not mean to take anything away from them."

He included an apology to Belmont Stakes winner Tonalist, congratulating him for a victory and said he deserved to win, as well as to the world and America, basically saying it was the emotions of the moment that got to him.

As for California Chrome and the injury he suffered out of the gate, "he'll be alright."
